Eugene Modise grabbed another term leading the ANC's Greater Tshwane Region without anyone challenging him at the party conference near Pretoria, even though fraud accusations keep hanging over his head from a security contract mess. The deputy mayor and finance boss got hit with a forensic report claiming he broke councillor rules by not fully disclosing ties to Triotic Protection Services, which scored massive municipal deals worth hundreds of millions, and the DA filed criminal complaints earlier this month.
Modise clapped back, saying opposition attacks amount to malicious garbage designed to wreck his reputation before the upcoming elections, since he stepped down as company director before joining the council. The party conference also filled other regional positions with minimal drama, while the city's coalition government keeps Modise in his finance role despite DA pressure for suspension.
